TJ Inkspirations: Glimmer Rose with Cut-Align Sentiment

I am so excited that the new Cut-Align from My Sweet Petunia (the makers of the MISTI) came in this week from my Creativation (CHA) order. I cracked open the box right away so that I could play with it and share how it works!  This week's video is a two-fer. First I show how to use Nuvo Glimmer Paste to color a stamped image, then use the new Cut-Align to cut a stamped sentiment and matte perfectly.   I have to say, I really like this tool. I love that there are two Cut-Align rulers in each package, perfect for both Scrapbooking and stamping.  I will never have a crooked mat on my art again! I do have a few boxes in stock for you and they are available NOW.  Order yours HERE. Here is the artwork from the video: Glimmer Rose with Cut-Align Sentiment And the video: Glimmer Rose with Cut Align Sentiment

I hope you are a little inkspired by today's issue. See you next week!   Sincerely,   Pat Huntoon Technique Junkies LLC

Just a hug

Hello friends!

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Today I have a super cute card, sometimes we just need a hug and just a hug!!

For this project I used Just a Hug Stamp, brand new just released and the heart has a beautiful sentiment.

I stamped the image on watercolor paper in Cherry Ink, then stamp it again with Versamark and added Clear embossing powder, then heat set.

After that, sprayed the panel with Dazzle Shimmering Bliss Topper and Festive Flamingo Shimmering Bliss.

Die-cut the panel and added it to a White card base.

Added gold Nuvo drops, ribbon and a little piece of patterned paper.

 

You can get these products with a 10% discount using my TJ10Giovana code.

Hope you like it.

Have a wonderful day!!

Floral Framed Get Well Soon

The new Floral Framed Sentiments are one of my favorite sets from the February release.  Remember, you can use my discount code TJ10Stephanie for 10% off your entire order.

I love that I can use the grid-lines on my MISTI to line-up the stamps, and then I was able to stamp an entire set of Ombre Note cards in multiple colors.

I started with True Breeze Versafine Clair Ink on a blue note card.

Next I moved on to Orange for the Orange Opulence Challenge at the Rainbow Card Challenge.

And finally Yellow, but I stayed with the orange ink for more contrast.

I love all of the possibilities for this gorgeous stamp set.

I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU

Hello TJ Stamps Fans,

It's nearly Valentine's Day, a day for hearts and roses.  

I created this card using the beautiful stamp "Rose" designed by Jan from Mitten State Stamps for Technique Junkies.  I paired it with the lovely verse "Forever and a Day".  

I used Copic Markers to color the image and the background.  

The stamps I used for this card can be purchased from the Technique Junkies Store for a 10% discount if you use my personal discount code of TJ10Cheri.  That discount code works for ALL stamps and some products, so enjoy a little shopping fun and use the discount.  

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you found some inspiration while you were here.  Happy Valentine's Day!  

Your Compass

A lovely embossed panel and a large die cut heart, and a few punched hearts make up this card.  The bottom half (beneath the ribbon banner) was painted with Shimmering Bliss Dazzle Topper Spray.
I stamped and heat embossed with white detail embossing powder the Technique Junkies Stamp Heart Compass.

In My Prayers

I hope you're having a pleasant Sunday.  I have another card for you today, featuring the Floral Framed Sentiments 
set.  

I love these flower borders for coloring, but thought I'd try something different with my card today.  I chose soft pink card stock, and stamped one side of the floral border in Ranger Archival watering can ink about 2/3 of the way down the card front. I used my Misti to get a good image and precise placement.

I used some patterned paper from my stash to create some borders on my card front.  I also added some strips of gray card stock to give it more interest.

I stamped the In My Prayers verse along the top in the same watering can ink, again using my Misti to stamp it a couple of times to get the density I wanted.

I added a few Nuvo Jewel drops for some accents.

For the inside of my card, I stamped the other border image, and added strips of the same pp and card stock.  I like bringing the theme to the inside of my card.  I feel it gives it a more finished look.

I hope you have had a chance to see the February new stamps release, and were able to hop along with the design team for some inspiration.  If not, you can check out their projects HERE.

If you are going shopping in the Technique Junkies store, you can get 10% off with my code, TJ10Lynda. 

Are you inspired by this amazing  Floral Framed Sentiments set?  The flowers are lovely colored, as well as just stamped in a single color as I've done here.  And the phrases in the set are beautifully written.
                                                              

Have a great Sunday!

Blessings,
 

Stole My Heart

Hello Junkies! 

It's Ceal, here to share one last Valentines card with you before the day is actually here. 

For my card I used the You Stole My Heart stamp along with the Love Harlequin background stamp.

To create it, I started with a top folding white card base and a panel of Bristol smooth cut down a quarter of an inch smaller.  I created the ink distressed background using distress oxide ink and water and allowed it to dry completely. I have found that distress inks are a lot easier to blend on bristol.

Next I stamped the Love Harlequin background with Versamark ink and then embossed it using Pink Champagne embossing powder. I stamped the puppy image on another white piece of cardstock ad colored it using Copic markers, nd then die cut it out with a circle die. 

To finish the card I added some touches that are hard to see in the photo. I added glossy accents to the heart headband and Midas Touch by Nuvo to the ends of the arrows and the bow.
